The Bad

  • Limited Availability
  • Lack of Pricing Information

Limited Availability

Cape Fear Solar Systems is only available in Southeastern North Carolina. 

Lack of Pricing Information

Other than stating that Cape Fear Solar Systems works with all budgets, there isn’t much information about pricing and the actual cost of the solar panel system on the company's website. As most home systems are individually planned, the pricing must be discussed when a quote is offered.

They do not offer any panel cleaning or annual check up services. I have friends in other states that have solar and their installation companies offer these services. Once installed, you are on your own and all you get is a monthly email newsletter about their newest installations.

Hi Ms. Kenny,

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review! Rest assured, though we do not offer cleaning, you are not on your own. We do have a dedicated service department should you ever have any questions or concerns regarding your system. We do not charge for service calls from our customers! 910-409-5533 option 2.
Thadeus at Sea Spray Exterior Cleaning is who we recommend for our customers who would like their panels cleaned. His number is (980) 406-4716

Sunny regards,

Disappointing that my system is only 7 years old now and two years ago, I learned a panel could not be replaced. My electric bills are low, but FYI in the winter I have a propane furnace for heat when the temperature reach a certain degree.

Hi Dian,

I am sorry you've had this experience - Let's take another look at the panel replacement. I'm going to have our lead service technician schedule a site visit with you to get to the bottom of this.

He will be in touch on Tuesday of next week. Enjoy your weekend!

Kind regards,
CFSS
